报告题目：Connection between affine surface areas and Minkowski type problems

报告摘要：Affine surface areas and Minkowski type problems are two central objects in convex geometry, which play fundamental roles in the development of the Brunn-Minkowski theory for convex bodies. Affine surface areas are useful in establishing affine isoperimetric inequalities, approximation of convex bodies by polytopes, and theory of valuations. Minkowski type problems aim to characterize surface areas for convex bodies and have close connections with Monge-Ampere equations.In this talk, I will give an introduction to these objects, explain how they can be connected, and discuss some problems motivated by such a connection.
